18, 1857. (Ibid. , p. 134. ) Buchanan himself had avoided so direct an untruth in the message. He had looked for forms, by which he concluded, so to speak, a compromise with the truth: "I took it for granted that the convention of Kansas would act in accordance with this example (of the ratification pro vision in the Minnesota bill), founded, as it is, on correct principles ; and hence my instructions to Governor Walker, in favor of submit ting the constitution to the people, were expressed in ...general and unqualified terms. " He went on: "In the Kansas-Nebraska act, however, this requirement, as applicable to the whole constitution, had not been inserted, and the convention were not bound by its terms to submit any other portion of the instrument to an election, except that which relates to the * domestic institution ' of slavery. " But, in the first place, the phrase "by its terms" was confronted by the express statement, in the letter of July 12. That it was re quired by the "principle" of the Kansas-Nebraska bill that is, of popular sovereignty; and, in the second, the law said " domestic in stitutions, " not "domestic institution.
